Annotation Type ActionViewDataMappings

@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
@Target(value=METHOD)
public @interface ActionViewDataMappings

The annotation used to indicate that a method is to be used to provide data to a JiraWebActionSupport action.

This allows you to specify multiple views that the method gives data to.

    @ActionViewDataMappings({"success","fail"})
 

By default the name of the method is used as the data key. If the method is a JavaBean getter then the de-capitalised name will be used otherwise the method name is taken as is. You can use the key="xxx" attribute to override the key name used

     getAddress() --> "address"
     myAddress()  --> "myAddress
